I loved this class so much as it was super interesting without being overly stressful. Professor Gray does a fantastic job at organizing this course in a way that if you put in the work, you are set to get a lot out of it while getting good grades. Lectures were very compelling. Would highly recommend!

This class was very manageable and somewhat easy. The lectures were boring but honestly thats when I completed most of the assignments which was nice. Attendance was 50% mandatory, once a week there was an attendance quiz. The assignments (5-10pts) help you complete your research essay at a steady pace throughout the quarter. I recommend this class

Summer is an excellent professor who teaches in such a personal and inspiring way. This course is based on a qualitative research project that you conduct individually. It is VERY manageable, and Summer walks you through every step of the way. This class brings something unique in that you learn by doing, not by taking tests and regurgitating info.

I loved professor gray and her es 155 course. TAKE HER CLASSES! Im literally fangirling because she honestly is so knowledgable and such a great teacher I genuinely learned so much in her class. She knows her stuff and was able to make the class challenging and so interesting. overall my favorite professor at ucsb.

Professor Gray truly cares about her students and puts in time to make the class worthwhile. Im super excited to take another class with her this fall because env s 155 was really cool and a lot of the ES classes can sometimes be really generalized and just review for a lot of it but her makes hers really interesting and more specialized.

Professor Gray truly cares about her students and this class. She is very accommodating, and is clearly passionate about teaching. She shows a lot of videos in class, pulling from a wide variety of disciplines. A lot of assignments, but none of them are too difficult. Take this class!
